Is Vispring cheaper than Hästens?
Both brands sit in the high segment and the ranges largely overlap; model and finish drive the amount more than the brand does. Always ask for comparable finishes, or you are comparing two different things.
Vispring comes from England and works with individually filled pocket springs and natural fillings such as horsehair, wool and cotton — the same material philosophy as Hästens, but with a stronger emphasis on tailoring per sleeper. Hästens puts the emphasis on the layered build as a whole. We sell Hästens, and you may weigh that in.
Vispring and Hästens both believe in natural fibres and in beds that last decades. Where they part is the route: Vispring builds heavily to measure, with fillings and spring firmness tuned to the sleeper, while Hästens trusts a fixed build that does its work as a whole.
For couples with a large weight difference that is a relevant distinction, because tailoring per half solves something directly there. Both brands offer a two-half version; the question is how far that goes.
Broadly, many people experience Vispring as firmer and more direct, and Hästens as more enveloping. That is a preference and not a quality judgement, and it cannot be predicted from your height, weight or age.
Precisely for that reason this is the worst possible comparison to make on paper. With two brands that are both excellent, it is the feel after a few hours that decides — and that cannot be imitated in a showroom.
We don't sell Vispring and won't take anything away from it either: it is a serious brand with a defensible philosophy and for some people the better choice.
What SleepSpa adds is not a verdict between these two brands, but the chance to have a real night within Hästens. If you are torn between the brands, arrange a serious test at both — and don't settle for ten minutes.

No, there is Hästens only. Anyone wanting to weigh the brands against each other will have to arrange their own test at a Vispring dealer.
